Mad Max

If you want to take a look at my "peculiar" video review you can check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZBiaZmZDv4 If you want a short written recomendation: It's an open world third person action game based in the original Mad Max saga. There's some recognizable style from the last movie but I'd say that the focus on Max, his car and the general theme leans more torwards the original concept. It's a must buy if you like action games and specially wastelandish and Mad Max themes. The only thing to be wary about is the fact that this is the kind of game that moving away from the main story can leave you a feeling of emptiness and repetitiveness as this game world is not as "alive" as, let's say, Grand Theft Auto series or even Sleeping Dogs. Either way, a solid purchase.

It starts just average, like typical console port with all design flaws you can imagine (stupid keyboard controls, small spaces, follow-one-path narration and bluntly obvious indication for interactive elements) but after first ~2 h it opens up into a magnificent experience of perfect gaming. Well, the console roots shows off in the key binds but everything else disappear and experience is so superb that one can get used to controls. It is perfect combination of a story driven game with open world where you can free roam and do missions as they come or you can push the main story forward and still have even more fun with a bit more challenge. It has a racing game component that is completely optional but driving is so good that at some point you will want to do it anyway. I'm not into racing games at all and I did it in mad max. Some say it is repetitive and technically that is right (half of the game is about drive somewhere and kill bad guys, repeat), but each location is visually different, some have unique mechanics and the actual gameplay is very satisfying so you actually want to do it more! By the way, the way world is designed – it feels so… real. At all times all feels so organic, so right and plausible (given the world settings ofc).

Exceeded my expectations - worthy of more than one playthrough. Graphics are excellent. Challenging too. Brutal fighting gameplay as well.

Very good Mad Max game; great combat, fantastic setting, good customization for cars and upgrades... just a bit repetitive with their missions, sidequests and objectives but easily recommended

I didn’t pay attention to this game before ... i bought it here and realized that this is a very cool game ... thanks GOG)
